Textile industry under pressure to eliminate “forever chemicals”

Pressure is mounting on textile manufacturers to end the use of perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl chemicals (PFAS), commonly referred to as “forever chemicals”. The State of California has banned the manufacture, distribution or sale of apparel and textiles that have these chemicals effective Jan. 1, 2025. New York State has also enacted a ban effective end of this year, and other states, including Washington, Colorado and Maine, are enacting bans of their own.
